In this time of scares, it's important to remind people how to stay
safe and sound. While I may not have a great knowledge of the Latin
language or Middle Eastern politics, I'm an expert where it really
matters -- horror flicks. Let my education help you from sharing the
same fate as far too many thriller-ignorant people in the past. You are
welcome!
1) If someone offers to sell you a
beautiful house in the country for an unbelievably low price, do not
make the purchase. As nice as it sounds, the house is evil and you and
your family will be dead within a month. If there is no cell phone
service, and there probably isn't, chances are you'll be brutally
murdered even sooner.
2) On a related note, if,
at any point during a fun family trip, you can't get a phone signal,
turn the car around and go home now. The farther you travel to get a
signal, the closer you get to a gruesome death.
3)
Should you purchase a house, cottage or cabin in a remote area, and
your beloved dog will not enter, run away. Your pet is telling you that
evil spirits reside within and plan to kill you. If you ignore your
dog's warning and later find him dead (which you will), your poor pet is
giving you one last warning to flee, and flee now. If you still ignore
the obvious signs, PETA will be the least of your worries.
4)
That adorable doll your child has taken to? It's possessed, and intends
to kill your entire family. Burn the doll and any other toys in his or
her room. While you're at it, burn the entire house down and move.
Repeat this process as many times as needed, which will most likely be
for your entire life or until you can find a witch doctor who knows the
spell to free the miserable demon.
5) If you
have a child between the ages of, say, 5 and 15, there's about an 80
percent chance the little tyke is possessed by Satan. While that may
sound like discouraging news, know that the adolescent can get better
(see The Exorcist). Just be prepared for a very rough patch
until said exorcism is performed, or, in a worst-case scenario, the
child kills you (see The Omen).
6)
Never face an open medicine cabinet while brushing your teeth or
gathering toiletries. When you close it, a killer will be lurking in the
mirror. Ditto staring into the refrigerator when you open the door late
at night: Once you find that yummy snack and close the door, a
psychopath will be on the other side.
7) Even if you've butchered, knifed, shot, punched, and
strangled someone to death, if you put your weapon down and walk away,
he will get up and attack you again. If you were dumb enough to drop
your weapon and turn the other way, well, you kind of deserve it.
8)
Never, under any circumstance, pull over to a seemingly deserted motel
just off the main highway, no matter how tired or lost you might be.
Someone or something resides at the building and is planning to kill
you. If you drive away and keep finding yourself back at the main
entrance, don't bother with GPS: You're already dead.
9)
Should you get in your car to drive away from a crazed maniac, don't
bother checking under the car or looking in the passenger's seat. He
will appear behind you as soon as you get inside and look in the
rear-view mirror. And never enter a car garage late at night. Do the
smart thing and spend a hundred dollars on a taxi service, then pick up
your car in the light of day.
10) If you and a
bunch of really popular friends think it's a great idea to be cruel to
an unpopular girl in school, think again: Even if she dies she will come
back to torture the lot of you, one by one.
11)
If you're the prettiest girl in college who's dating the cutest guy on
campus while a bunch of sorority girls are being murdered -- and you're a
bitch -- stop reading and put your affairs together; you're next.
12)
Evil spells and curses, no matter how ridiculous they might sound, are
real. Do not ignore them or tempt fate by playing along. You won't be
laughing when you bring back to life a thousand-year-old demon who's
just been waiting for someone as stupid as you to come along and let him
loose.
13) Never move into a home where a mass
murder took place or where an ancient burial ground has been paved over.
Seriously, people, some of these tips are just common sense.
14)
Contrary to popular belief, large cities are much safer than remote
country homes where, supposedly, nothing bad ever happens. Anyone with
half a brain knows that small, charming towns are where ax murderers and
their ilk reside. And if your adorable, sexy, successful husband takes
you there so you can get some much-needed rest, don't go: He plans to
kill you.
15) Never run into your local church
to hide from an evil force. That's the first place Satan looks. Hit Taco
Bell or Starbucks. He never checks those spots.
16)
It's great that you want to document your journey into a run-down
mental institution, or some abandoned caves or even a creepy old house.
But do not record your investigation. The evil dead loathe being
captured on camera and will kill your crew for filming them. On a
brighter note, your death will be recorded for posterity, as the grisly
murders will all be filmed in their entirety, no matter what horrifying
situations the cameraman endured.
17) Whenever
anyone tells you that you're safe now and it's all over and he can't
ever hurt you again, be prepared: The worst is yet to come.
18)
If you're walking by a building and think you see a person staring at
you from an upstairs window or someone opening a curtain, do not enter
the residence. Ever!
19) Should you be offered a
wonderful, pressure-free job at a mansion, a hotel or any quiet,
out-of-the-way place, and find that no one else has applied and that the
boss needs you to start immediately, run away. Every previous employee
has either been murdered or is in the basement being tortured in some
fashion or another.
20) If you and your besties
need to get away for a week of relaxation, avoid any location with the
word "Lake" in the name. Ditto the words "Creek," "Cabin," or "Hill."
Only one of you will make it home alive. In general, stay away from
secluded ski resorts, hidden diving spots or cozy campsites. Not to
sound like a worrywart, but it's probably best you avoid vacations
altogether.
21) Ventriloquist dummies are all
possessed. Never go near one, or its "owner." While this might sound
obvious, remember that there are people in this world who actually think
clowns are cute and fun, not the murderous psychotic maniacs educated
people know them to be.
22) Fear of being knifed to death in the shower is so
overrated. I mean, seriously, what are the odds? What you do need to be
afraid of are bathtubs, especially the claw-foot variety. You'll be
sucked under, see ghosts in the suds, watch blood ooze from the drain,
and generally be terrorized while you're relaxing in the tub.
23)
If everyone you know thinks you're crazy it's because everyone you know
wants to sacrifice you, or your baby, in a satanic ritual. Move now,
and never tell your best friend or spouse -- he or she is in charge of
the proceedings.
24) Do not try and be funny in a scary situation. Demons hate wise-crackers and slit their throats just to shut them up.
25)
Never approach a person who is facing away from you, usually in a
seated position, even if they are crying and look like your long lost
child or a sweet old woman. Once you turn them around, you'll discover
they are a horrifying ghostly figure with deathly intentions.
26)
Should you decide to take an amazing journey to freezing-cold
mountains, untraveled waters or space, enjoy! And know that you're
bringing back some sort of deadly creature or nuclear-created monster.
27)
Contrary to what security companies tell you, home-surveillance cameras
will not keep you and your loved ones safe. The devices just piss off
poltergeists, who prefer to roam around unnoticed. Save yourself some
money and instead invest in a few wooden stakes and a crucifix.
28)
Basements and attics are wonderful places to store old furniture and
memorabilia. Sadly, they are also where evil spirits lurk. Should your
house have either, move.
29) Never run back into
a house after narrowly escaping a murderer, because you "forgot
something." Even if that "something" is your best friend. The killer's
inside, moron, and your friend's already dead.
30)
Should you move into a new home and hear voices at night and thumps
from another room, see lights flicker, watch doors creak open and slam
shut, observe objects move or reappear after you've disposed of them,
witness cats hissing from windows, notice pictures repeatedly falling
off walls or a mantel or see blood dripping down the walls, do not shrug
it off as "fatigue" or an "over-active imagination." The home is
haunted and plans to abduct your soul.
31) Contrary to what almost everyone tells you, you can
have sex without fear of being slashed to death post-release. Just
follow a few practical murder-safe sex guidelines and you'll be fine.
Never have sex with a really dumb guy or girl especially if they're hot,
never have sex naked, especially if your boobs are fake, never have sex
in the dark, never have sex drunk or high, never have sex while still
on the job, and never have sex in an unfamiliar place, including but not
limited to, hotels, elevators, high rises, fields, beaches, your
baby-sitting gig, a sorority or fraternity house, high-school or college
campuses, a car, a graveyard, the woods, a tent, a Jacuzzi or sauna, a
cornfield, and, worst of all, your bed. Keep those tips in mind and
you're good to go. And, remember, always wear a condom. Better safe than
sorry!
